Where did you get your substrate that looks like brick or pavers, if you don't mind me asking?
 
It would be nice to make a couple roads out of that.

Robert - Thanks! 

 

The brick is a rubberized mat made by Lemax and available in many stores during the Christmas season. Comes in different lengths. I did have it in use for a few roads, but currently am just using some for the station and parking lot area. Hope to use more in the future when I have more space!

 

Thanks to Cesar (love the SF Heavyweights), Mike W., Zigmont (beautiful photos), Jackson, Mikey (beautiful interiors), Jim with his terrific sheds, Jay Jay, Peter, and Roger.

 

From the number of posts, it sure demonstrates that everyone loves train stations. Roger's Rico Station reminds me that I have to photograph mine and post it here.

I have a partially compleated train station, that hides my tracks going through a wall. the blank side wall still needs some buildings to show the town around the station. I used parts from the plasticville airplane hanger to make my train shed. the platform now has lights and people. The main station is an HO power house, to give a forced perspective.

Sure, Anytime! 

 

Stations add so much character to any layout particularly when it focuses on the steam era. 

 

I got my station shot while doing a running session and it turned out pretty nice. I like the added character from the figure. 

Here is the train station in the town of Beawslaiw circa early 1950's.  Beawslaiw is a rural town on my layout.  It is along the Southern Pacific mainline somewhere between San Francisco and Los Angeles.  This depot services the Southern Pacific and the Brisbane & Bushong Railroads.  Matt
